What is P/E Ratio (Price to Earnings)? — Meaning, Definition & Example
Definition
P/E ratio measures how much investors are willing to pay for each rupee of a company's earnings. It is calculated by dividing the current share price by earnings per share (EPS). A higher P/E indicates investors expect higher growth. Nifty 50 average P/E is typically 20-25.
If TCS shares trade at ₹3,500 and EPS is ₹100, the P/E ratio is 35x — meaning investors pay ₹35 for every ₹1 of TCS earnings.
